any good exhaust shop will have them in stock and can weld one in
if the neuspeed is under warranty, I would call them first and see how they would like to handle this.

Re: any good exhaust shop will have them in stock and can weld one in
I lost the reciept for the exhaust and neuspeed can't find their end of the copy. I've contacted them already and although they were very nice there's not much then can do other than "send my part in for them to repair".
Thanks Ray

well that was kind of lame of them knowing how much it would cost to have it removed
and shipped to them. If they are going to be like that, it's a cheap part and cheap labor relatively speaking. I had to have a flex pipe installed in my car a while back. It should be 20 minutes labor and a $40 part give or take. I bought my own from ATP, but the shop had them in stock anyways.

2nd that. I had the same problem on my previous car.
The shop welded in a new flex pipe and it cost me about $150 (including the pipe). Might be expensive, but the dealer quoted me $1100 so I was very happy to pay $150.
